Sunfair Sundown by Courtney Barnett Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, what a day
And congrats on the keys to your place
You've escaped the rat race, as they say
Now you're settling in for the stay
Anyway, you got a blank slate to renovate
[Verse 2]
Take it all
Yeah, you reap what you sow and so it goes
What you put in the ground comes around
When you don't really know what you're missing at all
[Verse 3]
In a daze
I can picture you whittling away
With such care, with such patience and grace
And I smile when you say
That you'll build me a table one day
Well, I'd be so grateful
[Verse 4]
Sometimes it's hard
Getting lost, you say, is a fine art
Put thе map down and follow the stars
Shall we leavе? Are you sure?
Let me grab my bag
We can sneak out through the side door
[Verse 5]
In the dark
Are you scared? Did you hear those dogs bark?
And do you ever wonder what sets you apart?
You shine the torch on the path
Darling, please don't let go of my arm
[Verse 6]
When you sleep
Are you warm? Can you feel my cold feet?
Are you good? Are you making ends meet?
At the end of the day, you're awake with your thoughts
And I don't want you to be alone
[Outro]
And I don't want you to be alone
Yeah, I don't want you to be alone
And I don't want you to be alone
Oh, what a day
And congrats on the keys to your place
You've escaped the rat race, as they say
Now you're settling in for the stay
Anyway, you got a blank slate to renovate
[Verse 2]
Take it all
Yeah, you reap what you sow and so it goes
What you put in the ground comes around
When you don't really know what you're missing at all
[Verse 3]
In a daze
I can picture you whittling away
With such care, with such patience and grace
And I smile when you say
That you'll build me a table one day
Well, I'd be so grateful
[Verse 4]
Sometimes it's hard
Getting lost, you say, is a fine art
Put thе map down and follow the stars
Shall we leavе? Are you sure?
Let me grab my bag

Are you good? Are you making ends meet?
At the end of the day, you're awake with your thoughts
And I don't want you to be alone
[Outro]
And I don't want you to be alone
Yeah, I don't want you to be alone
And I don't want you to be alone
